DiamondGlow vs. Traditional Facial: What’s the Difference?

I get asked all the time what is the difference between a traditional facial and a diamond glow facial?

Both services are very beneficial to the skin, but they work a little differently.  Here’s what you should know before your next appointment at Maine Laser Skin Care in Scarborough, Maine.

What Is DiamondGlow?

DiamondGlow is a professional skin resurfacing treatment that uses a diamond-tip wand to perform three steps at the same time:

Exfoliate. Extract. Infuse.

As the diamond tip removes dead skin cells from the surface, the treatment also helps extract debris from pores while infusing the skin with a professional serum selected based on your skin’s needs.

The result? Skin that can look brighter, smoother, cleaner and more hydrated immediately after treatment.

DiamondGlow can be a great option when you're looking to address concerns such as:

• Dry or dehydrated skin

• Dullness

• Rough or uneven texture

• Congested pores

• Uneven-looking skin tone

• Overall skin maintenance

And with minimal downtime, it’s the perfect facial for every season and occasion.

How Is a Traditional Facial Different?

A traditional facial is focused more on deep cleansing, exfoliation, hydration, and relaxation.

A big benefit to a customized facial is that your provider can analyze your skin and tailor every step towards your needs. Whether that’s product focused or taking a more relaxing approach.

 DiamondGlow vs. Facial: Which Should You Choose?

There's no right or wrong answer—it depends on what you want from your appointment.

Consider DiamondGlow if:

You want a more treatment based facial, your pores are congested, looking for targeted customized serums for deep infusion, and improve texture and tone

 Consider a Traditional Facial if:

You want a more customized facial based on your needs and your personal skin concerns.

 Can You Get Facials Regularly?

Absolutely. Professional facials aren’t just something to treat yourself or get ready for a special event. Facials work the best when you keep up with them and are consistent with your at home skin care routine.

Give Your Skin What It Needs

Whether you're looking for a refresh, hydration, exfoliation, anti-aging or simply some much-needed skincare time, both DiamondGlow and professional facials have their place.

At Maine Laser Skin Care in Scarborough, Maine, we'll help you choose treatments based on your skin—not simply what's trending.
